This ⬆️

100%

Agreed

Agree

Agreed

I totally agree with you on that.

For real hahaha something terrible happens and then it’s never mentioned again 😂

The aftermath arc really did capture how devastating this news could be... i’ve read of stories of families that found out that one of their family members did some horrendous stuff it is crushing, embarrassing, they get harassed by the public and media but the truth is that most of us would never expect one of our loved ones capable of such things.

And sadly the character of Gail has since been reduced to a shadow of her former self. She is not a serious person at all and is used as a crap comic relief character whose behaviour is stupid and ridiculous in a weird way. Steve and Tracy McDonald and Dev Alahan are the same: overacted gormlessness and ridiculous "humour" that isn't that funny. It's as if they turn characters daft when they run out of ideas. To look at those characters today it's unbelievable that they have all, at one time or another, been major characters with serious, hard-hitting storylines. Who would see today's Tracy with her theatrical performances with Mary and bitchy remarks and remember she was a callous, calculated murderer? Or that Steve had ties to drugs gangs (Jez Quigley)? Or that dippy Gail, who today is the butt of ridicule of her family and pining after the latest in a line of soppy husbands (Les Dennis!) was married to a serial killer?

Helen Worth deserves an Oscar for this great acting

Terrible actor though

@@simondelaney6483 alright then let's see you do better I'm sutecyouve had years of theatrical training to call him a bad actor. The real terrible actors are on Emmerdale and Hollyoaks.

@@jacobmassey3897 well put

@@dontgetittwizted thanks dude

@@jacobmassey3897 no bother at all m8

Paul Gray yes because nowadays they just repeat everything that's happened but with different people. Storylines like this back then were huge because nobody had seen anything like this before.

The classic episodes were way better in the 90s, 00s and early 2010s, better then the late 2010s and now, they rubbish now and I stopped watching it, last time I last watched it was where the live episode in 2015 September where Kylie killed Callum.

Same I've not watched in over a decade. Enjoying these old clips and reminiscing but realizing how kinda lame the acting is. Lived it bk in day though

You haven't missed much, the tram crash of 2010 was really the end of the good times.

But nobody cares about your internet problems. Post something relevant.

Nah, pat phelan was

@@jenlutherborrow5032 nah David growing up until Kylie died

Thanku ive enoyed this xxx

@GlennB9876 absolutely agree it was truly gripping

We've reached it now!

She was not down the pub only acting remember.

At least she had a brandy to keep the gossip flowing!

@@josephdyson3737 while she was having a gossip a Silver Ford Galaxy MK1 was speeding down Weatherfield streets then driving into a canal

It is acting

I think Pat Phelan was the closest we got to Richard but nobody will ever top Richard in any soap again👏

Both Pat Phelan and Richard Hillman were my favourite Corrie Villains imagine those two together

Jez quickly was good

Richard was chilling in how cold he was, though it is shown that in the beginning he had a lot of guilt but as time went on he was too focused on his perfect life that he convicted himself anything he did was justified then he went nuts but always was cold and calculating even then... Richard for his duality and coldness and brutality was one of Corries most notorious and famous villains Pat phelan was a thug and always was, hardened by his time in prison, and a life of organized crime, so his villainy was more understandable because he was one of the few actual mafioso types that lived on the street I still Think Tony gordon comes close to Richard but different, Tony was not a thug like phelan, but he orchestrated his best mates death out of jealousy and spite for him sleeping with his girlfriend and then after Tony felt betrayed and that everything he could have had was done for he no longer cared who he hurt or killed not even himself.

@@darrkksupernatural9782I think the closest we got to Richard was Carla's ex Tony in 2010. Richard and Tony shared a similar sterile, Darwinian view of people. Phelan was a nasty depraved brute but also had genuine personal affection for his family. For example if Phelan's grandson Zack had been born with a deformity/disease I think Phelan would still protect him whereas Richard/Tony would recommend putting the baby out of its misery. And of course Richard/Tony ended up killing themselves for Gail/Carla. Phelan would never have killed himself for any woman.

Just done the same thing. A great storyline.

Could Richard have killied more ppl and could he have sold their properties cars asset

Funny feeling Gail's brother Stephen is gonna give him a run foe husband money

Pat was smart enough to see that if Summer got in that car she was be in danger

Audrey did herself no favors when she was blatantly accusing Richard in public with no evidence other than her feelings that soured and ruined her credibility with Gail and a lot of people because of that and many refused to see it because they thought it was harassment gossip from Audrey Richard was very good at manipulation but he also had a genuine charm and seemed to have a good grasp of civility and sense when he interacted with others Just to point out to people, Ted buddy, John wayne Gacy and Jeffrey dahmer were notorious for being trustworthy types who were able to lure and trap their victims and they were seen and regarded by friends, family and neighbors as normal as you could be these kind of predators are very good at hiding in plain sight and pretending to be the sheep while sharpening their fangs and waiting for the right moment.

@@mckenzie.latham91 yeh, same for Norris. Emily really annoyed me throughout this saga (more than Gail in fact) and I think Norris' gossiping only made her more adamant to defend Richard.

It would of been great if Phelan and Hillman were together

@@racerja3173 dream encounters: - Richard Hillman vs Mad Maya vs Tony Gordon - Pat Phelan vs Charlie Stubbs - Stephen Reid vs John Stape

HAHAHA!!!!

LOL

😂😂😂😂

I’ve got the keys to that come on

i didnt even get wet.

Beat mate

I still remember when Michelle first appeared as a member or candidate for Liz's boyfriend's band. Funny how that one brief scene led to years of explosive storylines involving the whole Connor clan especially Carla.

Same I was only 4 when this aired but I still remember the scene where the car drove into the river.

Hillman's actions were as evil, but there was genuine moments where he still had regret and guilt over time he seemed to get over it but even then he confessed to Gail because part of him couldn’t handle the lies anymore when he returns he’s had a complete breakdown where he’s gone full on suicidal and thinks dying with his family is the only future for him Whereas Pat Phelan while having some good moments in his life, was never sorry, never had any regrets and or qualms about his deeds I can’t say Hillman was totally evil because there’s evidence where he still had moments of humanity over his crimes, and in the end he went totally insane from the stress and guilt and fear... Whereas I don't think Pat ever once had a moment of guilt or regret over anything he did.

Phelan was depraved whereas Hillman was coldly warped. Phelan only used Eileen whereas Hillman was obsessively devoted to Gail. Phelan seemed to have enjoyed a good life whereas Hillman knew nothing but disappointment, only getting lucky very late in life. Phelan was proud to have a daughter while Hillman was ashamed of his sterility. Comparing with other villains, I think Phelan was more like Carla's rapist ex Frank while Hillman was more like Carla's suicidal ex Tony.

@@mckenzie.latham91 Richard never had guilt. Those moment where he looks like he's regretful is because his actions never gave him the outcome he wanted. Maxine died in vain and Emily survived the attack so he never got the money for her house. He did it for nothing and so he felt "guilt" because of that. If it had all gone to plan he wouldn't have cared about them and would have been happy since he got what he wanted.

Same here, we're probably the same age. And I find him more tragic/pathetic now rewatching as an adult - I don't want to say he's more 'relatable' but his whole backstory / sob story about his parents and wives is easier to picture now. He was genuinely devoted to Gail and the kids but as Gail realised, he was only devoted to them as a concept.

Norris maybe annoying but he's always been very protective of his 'ladies', Rita and Emily.

Emma Clarke The best part of a year but worth it haha

@@corrieplattfan4847 so much, all for us :') I'm touched

​@@corrieplattfan4847Thank you SO much, you are brilliant❤❤❤❤❤❤

I was just thinking, after everything Richard put her through, you'd think Audrey would now feel deja-vu with Stephen. Poor Gail, her half-brother is like a milder version of Richard.

Watch Richard hillman exposed, it shows how

Sadly they had to compete with reality TV in the 2000s then social media in 2010s, that's why soaps plunged downhill fast after that.

What feeling

Empty :( I have nothing to look forward to at night

@@richardhillman9893 you wouldn't know what feelings are Richard, but we feel empty. Like we've seen it all and now there's nothing

I remember watching it when it was originally broadcast and now that feels like a really long time ago

@@rol1517 I feel old now because I almost feel sorry for Richard after his sob story about mother and wives. I never paid attention to his back story when I watched this as a kid.

😂😂

He did cheat

No

Richard was a very kind man. He only went crazy because of Audrey constantly making bogus accusations against him that drove him insane

Richard was a great man. Noris drove him crazy

😂😂😂 I think that every time!!!

I mean, he said he had it prepared, so I doubt it was the radio

It was a cassette wasn't it?

It was an ordeal having to listen to it.

​@@bsaunders5271True 🤣🤣

To be fair how were they going to follow this?

What about Maya, Dev, Sanita episodes Maya was a great villainess a real psycho. Those episodes were every bit as good. True a shorter line but still awesome.

@@donnieallemanni8572 They were popcorn thrills though. This whole storyline with Hillman was a slow burner, it built and built over a long period of time. He was the perfect psychopath but there was elements of something admirable about him, his behaviour had a purpose it wasnt just run of the mill murder there was a stor behind it. He killed to provide for his ready made family, a family hed coveted his whole adult life,, you cant excuse his actions but you can feel a little sorry for him to some degree. He was the perfect psychology treatment whereas Phelan/Maya etc were just pointless crackpots without no real backstory and their behaviojr and murders seemed utterly pointless. They and other soaps have never been able to top this storyline and are never likely to because they havent got the patience to let a story grow organically,, they dont seem to be able to get a character to slowly build but also they cant find the right actor with the charisma to play such a role,, they seem more interested in creating short term explosive storylines not the frog in a boiling pan types. Also the characters he killed had become fan favorites like Maxine, Dougie and the attempted murders of Emily and Audrey,, fans of the show were heavily invested in those characters.

probably because they knew they would die if they didnt

When ur in that situation it’s a life or death thing you know if u don’t do it you’ll die

Perhaps adrenaline and instinct in that situation?

i can hold my breath for like 3 minutes

You can go about 3 minutes without taking a breath

There is! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y7F9q5eivN3YfIE.html Behind the scenes for this storyline begins around 41mins in.

@@corrieplattfan4847 I'm convinced you're a God who knows everything

@@Zero-Zero-Zero-Zero I’ve done my homework. ;)

Outstanding!

They tried to do that , also wouldn't that send the car skidding if Richard was pressing the accelerator at the same time?

Do people in Canada struggle with the Yorkshire accent and dialect? I suppose a lot of you have grandparents and such from the UK, giving you some insight into the style of speaking.

Fooo yes!

I don't think they could've stopped them if Gail insisted but yeah they should've at least had a police car parked outside the house guarding it.

@@imogenonscreen8054 exactly it was a mistake, I know it’s a tv show but what a fuck up not having a policeman outside

Karen always was especially from mid 2003- her exit. Suranne Jones is just a brilliant actress.

Well they were already tied up he probably didn't think he had to.

If it was real it wouldn't matter. They'd all be dead. He drive into the canal at about 50 or 60 mph. The kids weren't belted and would be launched towards the front of the car. If not dead from the crash they be KO'd and drown.

⁠@@imogenonscreen8054think of it realistically, Richard’s car was driving between 50-65mph, David and Sarah managed to break free while David and Richard fought over the steering wheel. When the car launched into the canal David and Sarah would’ve went straight through the windshield from the force. But they most likely put their seat belts back once David realised that Richard was about to drive head on into the canal.

David would’ve been there for ages if Sarah and Bethany didn’t show up for a while, besides Richard was waiting for the rest of the family to arrive home to take them hostage and put them in the car. He might’ve put the radio on for David to make him less scared

Martin did jump in, but he went to get Sarah and Bethany

kevin just stood there ...i noticed that

Yep

KathD10 yeah that's true it's really irritating

@@simrankooner4426 Mm I agree but it might have something to do with the scriptwriters

Shut up she's an old lady you idiot

Shut it noah

@@warrenryding100 That's me told.

Good point but they couldn’t undo their seatbelts so they couldn’t go over to him and if the scissors were stuck e.g his shoulder he could of taken the scissor out and done is back to them but worse.
